Gaza's civil defence agency said Israeli air strikes on Sunday killed more than 40 Palestinians, including at a market and a water distribution point, as talks for a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas stalled.

Gaza health officials say Israeli airstrikes have killed at least 19 people including six children at a water collection point.

The talks on a new ceasefire for Gaza have stuttered in Doha – while in Gaza itself dozens of people are being killed every day as the Israeli military consolidates its control over large parts of the territory.
